lyrics

If I were a ship, I'd sail out on the ocean
I'd visit distant shores where tourists seldom roam
I'd view the wonderous landscapes that border on the water
Looking like a postcard, and never think of home

If I were a plane, I'd fly above the mountains
I'd look down on the rugged peaks where climbers dare not go
I'd feel just like a bird, so free above the forests
Taking in the vista, and never think of home

Travel 'round the world with me
Travel 'round the world you'll see
That your backyard is nothing compared to what's out there
Travel 'round the world one time
Travel 'round the world, it's fine
Stamp your passport and travel around the world

If I were a train, I'd roll across the prairies
Winding through the rockies, and on to the coast'
I'd show off all our country, so wide and filled with beauty
So huge and so majestic, I'm proud to call it home
